Originally released in 2000, DUMBING UP was reissued in 2006 (in a package with a DVD of the group's videos). As always, Karl Wallinger (the band is essentially Wallinger's one-man project) is deeply steeped in the sounds of the 1960s, referencing Neil Young ("What Does It Mean Now?"), Crosby, Stills & Nash ("Til I Got You"), Bob Dylan ("Who Are You"), and the Beatles ("Another Thousand Years"). While Wallinger won't win any prizes for reinventing the wheel, his skills as a songwriter and builder of pop soundscapes are thoroughly winning, making DUMBING UP a fun, engaging listen from back to front.
This CD/DVD combination features a limited edition bonus DVD featuring almost three hours of all that is World Party: rare music videos, archival footage, live and studio performances, skits, hijinks and more. The CD features 12 recent hits. World Party Dumbing Up Songs Dumbing Up Review

Dumbing Up album
$16.05 This is a DualDisc, which contains a CD on one side of the disc and a DVD on the other.
With DEBUT, the Icelandic thrush Bjork Godmundsdottir (late of the Sugarcubes) brings her knowing innocence and quirky voice to bear on an engaging program of renegade pop tunes. The unusual instrumental textures on songs such as "Human Behavior," fleshed out with timpani, small percussion instruments, vibraphones and harps, suggests a post-modern version of Phil Spector.
As a singer, Bjork's swooping octave leaps and guttural cries betray the elemental contradictions in her music. She projects the ...
| | Trentalange Photo Album Of Complex Relationships CD (2006)
Dumbing Up CD music
$10.65 On the distressed cover of her debut album, Barbara Trentalange, who performs under her last name only, appears with her back to the camera, seated in a chair, with her hands tied behind her back. It is an appropriate image to represent the album's songs, which deal with romantic obsession to the point of sadomasochism, but which also seek relief and a return to a safe home. Trentalange sings her disturbing sentiments in a disembodied voice reminiscent of Björk (but without the Icelandic accent, of course) over stately music that suggests her classical background in its piano patterns but also reveals at least a nodding acquaintance with the relentless simplicity of Nine Inch Nails. Trentalange never quite works up the enraged head of steam that is typical of Trent Reznor, but in her own way she manages to be intensely involved and involving. On the back cover, she is still sitting in that chair, but she has freed herself of her bonds and is now looking over her shoulder at the viewer with an arch expression on her face. In the same way, she implicates the listener in the world of salvation and damnation depicted in her songs. ~ William Ruhlmann
Evocative and atmospheric. It should come as no surprise that Barbara Trentalange - the voice and creative force behind Trentalange - is also a visual artist. Lush, moody and provocative, the songs on "Photo Album of Complex Relationships" are cinematic soundscapes built upon instrumentation that includes cello, piano, flute, bass and percussion, with Trentalage's voice - velvety and emotive - as the foundation and centerpiece. After touring as part of the most recent ...
| | Lynn Stokes Sol Surfers CD (2007)
Dumbing Up music CDs
$13.15 My name is Lynn Matthew Stokes. I was born in the city of blues St. Louis, Mo. Spending my twenties in Austin Texas in the 1970’s allowed me to experience and witness a wide variety of exceptional musicians and musical trends; from the Cosmic Cowboy country and western scare of Waylon, Willie and the boys, to the electric blues revival of the Vaughan brothers. Concentrating mainly as a guitar player led me to playing with a variety of bands and musical styles throughout my career and working with talented songwriters who’s songwriting crafts did not go unnoticed. One of the highlights of those days was opening for Bob Dylan in 1991 in front of 5000 people and getting great revues in the music press.In ...
